Want to skip the chicken? No problem!


For a fantastic meat-free alternative, replace the chicken fillet strips with 500g of vegetarian chicken pieces.



Advice and Tools:


To fit your taste in spices, change the Madras herb paste quantity.

Sauté some onions and garlic first then add the chicken for a deeper taste.

The spinach should wither fast; avoid overdone it.

Cooking the vegetables with a bit of salt and pepper will help to improve their tastes.

At the end, add a tablespoon of cream for a further creamy sauce.
